How to Make It
- Place cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl with ½ inch (1.25 cm) water. Cover and microwave on high for 5 to 10 minutes, or until soft to the touch. Drain and set aside.

- Add crab and gently mix. Form into 6 equal-size patties.
- Place remaining ⅓ cup almond meal onto a plate or shallow dish. Press both flat sides of each crab cake into almond meal to coat.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ghee and wait for 30 seconds.
- Place crab cakes in hot ghee. Cook for 2 to 4 minutes, or until deeply browned. Turn and cook for 2 to 4 minutes on the other side until browned and cooked through.
